Please don't look at this, or my experiment will go tits-up. I know it will be banished to Spam in a minute or so, but I want to do this somewhere that people will see, and everyone talks bollocks in General anyway.

Post2

:confused:

See? You just ruined it.

See? You just ruined it.
sorry.
why not just post this in spam in the first place?
or at least say what this experiment is... :confused:

i mean you got me all interested now

I saw the word "tits" and I just had to come in, alright? It's my magnet word.

The idea was to create a thread, then post in it without returning to the forum in between times. If I was right in my assumption, the server would not count a 'View' unless I entered the thread FROM the forums, and simply posting about three times would be sufficient to prove this theory. I would then end up with a thread with a post count of, for example, 5, and a view count of zero or one.

post?

furious spam.

just so the post count stays higher than the view count.


this is a very odd experiment

The best experiments are odd, that way, interesting things are discovered. Unfortunately, I don't think it would have worked anyway.

Your hypothesis is correct. Now you don't need the thread.
